01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

The overall health is 4.8 out of 10, indicating average health for the Google Business Listing. The business benefits from a claimed listing, a visible open status, and a strong description, but lacks a phone number and continues to build a photo library. A clearer call to action and more customer contact options would help improve engagement.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    PhoneYour listing has no phone number, so the call button a customer expects to tap is not there and the ones in a hurry ring someone else.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingYou have fewer photos than nearly every business here, so a customer comparing you against them builds a picture of their work and guesses at yours.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set is one of the better-fitted in this market, so you are eligible for nearly every search happening around you.

Your reviews

Mike Greer Homes Rangiora Branch shows a below-average health score of 3.9/10 on Google reviews. The overall health indicates limited engagement and review activity. The two most important findings are: no responses to any reviews, and a solid but growing review base with room to increase rating confidence and maintain service quality.

Strengths

Your first one is close. Sort an opportunity below and it moves up here.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 2
    Star ratingYour rating sits well below what customers here are used to seeing, and it is the first number they compare when two businesses look otherwise equal.
  • 3
    Review confidenceYour rating and your review count together sit behind half the businesses here, so a customer weighing three listings has slightly less reason to trust yours.

Where you show up on the map

The Maps search health for Mike Greer Homes Rangiora Branch shows a low overall visibility of 1.5 out of 10, with limited local presence. Top findings indicate some traction in broader maps queries and minimal borough presence, highlighting opportunities to improve both aggregate and suburb-specific rankings.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

    Maps visibility across the city groupYou appear in a handful of Maps searches across the suburbs around you, far fewer than most businesses here.

Where customers find you

The overall health remains very high, indicating strong presence across key platforms. The most notable findings are outstanding Instagram and Facebook profiles with very high trust, and a solid Neighbourly and Yellow Directory presence that supports local reach.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Instagram ProfileWe found your Instagram Profile page, and the trail between you and it is unambiguous - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Yellow ProfileWe can see the Yellow Profile listing (https://yellow.co.nz/y/mike-greer-homes-north-canterbury-limited-579400857) found via: Google search results, but nothing on it tells us it is yours - no matching phone number, no matching address, and the name does not line up.
  • 3
    Neighbourly ProfileWe can see the Neighbourly Profile listing (https://www.neighbourly.co.nz/business/mike-greer-homes-north-canty-ltd) found via: Google search results, but nothing on it tells us it is yours - no matching phone number, no matching address, and the name does not line up.

Strengths

  • ✓
    People following your pageYours is one of the largest local followings in this market.
  • ✓
    Where your page link pointsThe link on your page goes to a domain that is yours, so a visitor who came for the photos leaves on your terms and the enquiry lands in your inbox rather than someone else's.
  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.

Your website

The On-Page SEO health for Mike Greer Homes Rangiora Branch is 7.3 out of 10, indicating a solid technical foundation with room to improve. Notable findings include an existing H1 tag and a valid favicon, plus secure HTTPS resources and a page under 256KB. Opportunities focus on refining the title tag, meta description, and reducing render-blocking resources to lift performance.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain HealthYour site answers cleanly over a secure connection, so a customer clicking through from Google lands where they expect with nothing in the way.
  • ✓
    Separate sites linking to youMore separate websites link to you than almost any business in this market - a spread built over years that a competitor cannot buy their way into.
  • ✓
    The shape of your link profileYour links come from about as wide a range of sites as anything in this market, and the mix of link types looks entirely natural.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 2
    Page titleThe length of your headline is near enough now that most of it survives in a search result.
  • 3
    Meta descriptionYour search summary is close to the length that usually survives intact, so the length is near enough settled and the wording is what moves people now.

Your hours against demand

Mike Greer Homes Rangiora Branch shows partial alignment: core weekday lunchtime hours match local demand (Tues 12pm, Wed 11-12pm, Thu 12-1pm) and represent the 40 well-aligned peak hours. However the branch is closed for several high-demand weekend hours (Sat 11am-2pm, Sun 12pm), creating notable missed opportunities. No off-peak open hours were identified, so inefficiency from open-but-low-demand slots is minimal.
